Tom,

More exposure for ISA is a good thing. But what's your experience with
hardware firewalls? Mine is that they sit until they die and never get
updated. Companies that own them treat them like the copy machine. They
just keep using it and essentially ignoring it until they die. As long
as it's working, it's a no touch item. Both the copy machine and the
firewall tend to be the oldest hardware in the office.

At least a "server" they can understand needs to be kept up to date.
